"My obligation as a believer"? It's not up to me to explain your position to myself. If you can't construct a meaningful sentence to support your cause then it's noone's problem but yours.
If not so then why are there religious promotions on social media everywhere?

Who determined it? Well, I could tell you but the answer is pretty ironic so I won't. Our cognitive limitations are self-evident in the very nature of our existence. Finite beings bound by the laws of spacetime. Unless you can make a convincing argument that demonstrates how such beings could leap into transcendance it stays a lost cause for whatever advancements we make we do so within our boundaries.
How was then it revealed that such a being not bound by space and time existed? in essence explain revelation

You make no sense. You made an unclear statement and refused to clarify it, instead prompting me to figure it out.

It's your job to explain your position, this has nothing to do with religious promotions (whatever you mean by that).

What are you asking now? How do we know God is not bound by space and time? I already said this. It's logically necessary that God is maximally great and as such transcends all of creation (spacetime included).

As for revalation, it is simply God making himself known to man. Revealing his nature and existence to a certain degree, hence the name revalation.

My deduction reasoning points to 1 thing "REVELATION". You're telling me the definition of revelation instead of How it happens. You're clearly running away with the explanation. I SAID HOW DOES REVELATION HAPPEN NOT WHAT IS REVELATION :|


Oh yeah, I know your answer: "It's beyond human capabilities to comprehend it". It's like me asking a person who is eating manure why is he doing so. Instead he tells me "I am not obligated to tell you why I am eating this shit, and it's beyond human cognition to comprehend it".

^^^ This is what's happening around the world. Nigerian millions, majority of then are pastors who use the exact same responses...

This is what you said. ^ Explain revelation. This could mean both "explain what revalation is" and "explain how revalation works". Again, I'm not running away from anything, it's you who doesn't know what he's asking.

I can't seem to make sense of your question though. You're asking me how revalation works? It's self-explanatory. God reveals himself to man and he does so in multiple ways, be it through events that happen in the world around us, be it through prophets, miracles or direct contact with God himself.

The very revalation you're asking me about is written in the Bible (technically the Bible is God's revalation). That's if we're discussing Christianity here. (If not, just swap Bible for some other holy book and you'll get the same principle.) God communicates with man directly or indirectly thus making himself known.

How clearer can I make this for you? Do you need me to explain how communication works? It's literally just that.

Edit: I've just realised we have went completely off-topic as this is a thread about the purpose of life. Should you wish to continue this (quite dull) conversation make a thread or something.

Bible is God's revelation :mad:_@:

Anyways I work with digits, that's why I needed you to mention substantiated amounts. I asked for an event that connect transcendence and "mortal world at the begin, the plan was to extract the below:

* Miracles
* Prophets
* Events around the world
* Direct contact

* Miracle: Do you read of them or do you watch them?

* Prophet: mention 1 prophet and answer why do you think his word is > others

* Events around the world: such as?

* Direct Contact: <=== Who experienced this? And how was that info made known to you?

Hmm.. I would like to say that having a purpose solely for oneself doesn't make life meaningful.
